This Valentine’s month, come celebrate the flipside of romance!

Join us for readings by
Alison Hawthorne Deming,
Steve Orlen and Richard Shelton,
all of whose poems are included in the anthology,
It’s Not You, It’s Me: The Poetry of Break Up,
edited by Jerry Williams. 

This touching, angry, and hilarious anthology gives a fresh voice to the all too familiar experience of ending a relationship. Jerry Williams compiled over 90 poems that create a therapeutic and transformative, edgy yet sincere collection. The book incorporates work from as many different perspectives as possible (female and male, gay and straight, innocent and guilty) in order to explore the exquisite pain of heartbreak.
